Often, people who apply for a driving licence get a little excited and keep checking the status — possibly because a driving licence is closely associated with new experiences like buying or driving a new car or bike.
So, if you are reading this blog, the chances are high that you have recently applied for a driving licence in the state of Uttarakhand. If that is the case, we will tell you how to make a Uttarakhand driving licence online check.
Checking the DL application status is a very simple process. After you have completed all the steps in the RTO, you need a few documents and you can conveniently follow a few online steps to check your driving licence application status.
Keep reading to know more.
When to Check Driving Licence Status
As mentioned earlier, you must apply for a driving licence in the RTO. After the application, you have to go through several stages, like the learner test and the driving test. Once the driving test is complete, it may take around two weeks to issue or dispatch the driving licence.
It is during this stage that you can seek information on driving licence status in Uttarakhand or any other Indian state for that matter. With that said, if you start looking up your driving licence status information from day one, you will get no information.
This is because there is no driving licence on the move. After the driving licence is dispatched, it takes at least another week to reach your address. So, it is safe to say that you may start checking your DL application status after two weeks of completing the driving test.
Now, if, even after 3-4 weeks, you get no update on your DL status, you should contact the RTO directly.
How to Check Driving Licence Status in Uttarakhand
There are different ways of checking the RTO application status for a driving licence. The most traditional one among them is the offline check, where you visit the RTO in person to check the status. Even in that case, the concerned authority will check the status online.
Also, you can perform the Uttarakhand driving licence online check. You can do it by visiting the Parivahan website or the Uttarakhand traffic website. Do not worry; we have discussed both.
Check DL Application Status Through Parivahan Website
You must first visit the Parivahan website to check your driving licence status. Once you are there, follow these steps:**
Step 1: Choose the concerned state — Uttarakhand.
Step 2: You will be redirected to the dedicated page of the Transport Department, Government of Uttarakhand.
Step 3: Next, on the ‘Apply Menu Online’, you will find a bunch of options like Apply for Learner Licence, Apply for Driving Licence, etc. Find the “Application Status” button on the top right corner.
Step 5: Click on the “Application Status” button, and you will be redirected to the next page.
Step 6: On the next page, you must put information like the Application Number, Date of Birth, and captcha.
After this step, you will get to know your DL application status. While filling out the details, you may notice another option for checking your DL application status if you applied through e-Mitra or e-District portal. If you choose that option, a drop-down menu will appear where you must select the specific portal.
Check DL Status on State Traffic Website
If you want to check the status of your driving licence application on the state traffic and transport website, you can easily do that. But like the previously described process, you have to visit the website of Uttarakhand’s Transport Department.
Step 1: Browse the e-Services options mentioned in the left-hand side menu, and choose “Online Services for Public”.
Step 2: Next, you will find a bunch of options like National Single Window System, Online CF of Challan, etc. Scroll down the list to see ‘Know Your DL Status’ as the third last option.
Step 3: Once you select the ‘Know Your DL Status’ option, a pop-up window will open, and you will be redirected to the Parivahan Website.
Step 4: In the pop-up window, you will be asked to provide information like the Application Number, Date of Birth, and captcha verification.
After the fourth step, you shall be able to find your driving licence application status.
What Documents Do You Need?
You will not need much information to check your driving licence status by application number. All you need to have is the driving licence application number and your date of birth while checking your DL status online in Uttarakhand.
Important Things to Keep in Mind
It usually takes about three to four weeks to get your driving licence after you complete the entire application process, including the driving test. However, sometimes the process can get delayed due to verification procedures. There can also be delays in the postal services.
Also, you should not check your DL application status more than once or twice weekly. There is no particular reason for it, but the fact that processes take time and checking many times in a week can be futile attempts.
Once you get your driving licence, make sure you drive safely and always carry your licence. Apart from the driving licence, you must also possess other important documents like the pollution under control certificate, vehicle registration certificate and a four or or two-wheeler insurance policy.
Here, we should mention that having insurance for two-wheelers or four-wheelers is important because it offers crucial financial safety in case of any accidents or mishaps. In case you get into an accident, and your car or bike causes any damage to a third-party property or person, your four or two-wheeler insurance will pay for the damage, shielding you against legal liabilities.
The Motor Vehicle Act 1988 also mandates having third-party motor insurance. So, once you get your licence and decide to buy a bike or car, make sure you choose insurance for your vehicle as well. Use our Tata AIG bike insurance calculator to calculate the premium for bike insurance and a car insurance calculator to calculate the car insurance premium.
Conclusion
As you can see, checking the driving licence application status in Uttarakhand is an easy process. You just have to follow a couple of steps and keep your DL application number handy at the time of checking your application status
